Admission takes into consideration your academic performance; your co- and extracurricular involvement; disciplinary record; recommendations; and your personal essay. Have all required documents for your application (including scholarship application, if applicable) on hand before you start filling out the forms.

Take your time in filling out the application, including your Scholarship/Financial Aid Questionnaire. Carefully select your degree program choices. We encourage you to submit way ahead of the deadline, to avoid stress.

You will then take the Ateneo College Entrance Test (ACET) at your scheduled date.

Admission to the Ateneo de Manila University Loyola Schools is determined by the applicant’s fitness and preparation for the college programs, ability to contribute toward the enrichment of the undergraduate school community, and potential to be of service to others within the context of national development.

The Committee on Admission and Aid is responsible for selecting the new members of the student body. It bases its decisions principally on the applicant’s past academic performance, ACET test scores, the recommendations of teachers, essay, and on information written down on the application form.

Results will be released directly to your registered email. You will get one of three decisions: accepted, waitlisted, or not accepted. Once you are offered a place in the freshman batch, you will be asked to confirm your slot. You will become an official student once you enroll for the first semester. Welcome to Ateneo!
